Trigger

Action

List Subtitle Languages

Tool to list all subtitle languages for a video. use when you have a video id and need to fetch its available subtitle languages.

Why this helps

It takes extra context switching to look up a video and check its language coverage during a chat.

  • See which language tracks are listed for a specified video.
  • Answer subtitle coverage questions from a WhatsApp request.
  • Spot when the video ID is missing before attempting a lookup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Amara once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe in one instruction that incoming requests with an Amara video ID should return that video's subtitle language list, and ask for the ID if it is missing.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real message containing an Amara video ID.

Questions about this workflow

Does the message need a video ID?

Yes. Amara's list subtitle languages action requires a video ID. If the message lacks one, Notis should request it rather than guess.

Can this add a missing language track?

No. This action lists existing subtitle languages. It does not create or upload subtitles.

Message Status Updated

Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
